I’m celebrating pollinators all week with books and activities. Pollinators come in all shapes and sizes, from teensy bees to big flappy bats. One thing a lot of them have in common is wings, so I’m starting the week off with…
Wonder Wings: Guess Who’s Flying
by Rebecca E. Hirsch; illus. by Sally Soweol Han
40 pages; ages 4-8
Abrams Books for Young Readers, 2025
Wings can soar and wings can skim…
Rhyming clues ask readers to guess whose wings these are. For example: wings that buzz and pollinate – and fly back to a hollow tree. Or what about wings that make a thrumming sound, that beat so fast all you can see is a blur? What about colorful wings that drift and float? Or wings that swoop through twilight sky?
Pollinator Week Activity: Make some wearable wings using recycled cardboard and markers, colored paper, and yarn or twine to attach them to your back. This video from the Smithsonian shows one way you can do it.
Fun!! Thanks for sharing.
